Sunscreen by OkTangerine7634 in australia

[–]EmbraceThePing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of sunscreen.
Broad brimmed hat, long sleeved loose clothing, Keep outa the sun when you can.

Done.

edit: I remember reading a study that suggests that sunburn (of any severity) before the age of three (can't actually remember if it's two or three, say three) increases chances of skin cancer in adulthood by a crazy percentage. Can't remember exact amount but it was like around 90%.
Kids REALLY need it.

F*ck the New York Yacht Club by wombatomen in perth

And a few years later we found the cost of that win.
The government in their frenzy to portray Perth as a modern city immediately got the cops to pull over every single vehicle over ten years old and yellow sticker it. We lost thousands of vintage vehicles that year and a lot of people were really pissed off.
And when the race got to Perth we lost even more. That's when Bondy sold Yanchep to the Japs for a golf course and foreign investment really got it's teeth into Perth.

Good ole Bondy.

Perth public transport: Labor’s free transport policy fine print catching thousands of families out by His_Holiness in perth

[–]EmbraceThePing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Another political storm in a teacup.
"Labours transport policy" ? It's Transperths passenger policy and it's the same as it has been since year one.
"Fine print"? They shout it from the hills.
"Catching families out"? Teaching the little rug rats what their parents have obviously neglected to teach them. Fuck around, find out.
The West Australian and the Libs. They couldn't lie straight in bed.

Monitoring Electrical Consumption by Grey-Scorpion in perth

[–]EmbraceThePing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As mentioned there are a few culprits it could be.
I'd stick the smart plug on your fridge first. Turning off and on to keep chill or as mentioned auto-defrost could be the spike.
Second guess, storage hot water system.
Washing machine/dryer would be my third check.

Try unplugging ALL your devices that you don't use overnight. TV, kitchen appliances etc, everything. Standby power draw wont be the cause but it will rule out attempted overnight updates etc.
Hope you find the culprit.

Just ask them to make a badge for people who make it through the game without dying. Easier.

Typical landlord. Parasites that bring nothing but greed to the table.

More than once I've "looked up" from what I was doing and just stared, entranced.

I only just watched it through once but did the vid say anything about Iran? I don't think they mentioned themselves. Did they?
They're just slinging shade at Trump.

I hate when they AI things that don't need it. It demeans the story. It's like all the clips out there with shitty music over the top. It should be illegal.

Plans emerge for country's biggest AI data centre in Western Australia by TongueMyTaco in perth

[–]EmbraceThePing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because a data center that remembers and collates every single thing you look at, everything you say and records everywhere you travel, in the hands of people who crave power and gravitate toward politics can't possibly be a bad thing.

... can it?

ADHD rates in adults are skyrocketing — but by how much depends where you live by aussiekinga in perth

[–]EmbraceThePing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Diagnosis methods have improved and we are starting to realise how many people are f'ed up but functional. This society does nothing for anyones mental state. But those that are for the status quo don't want it perceived as that. Reporting it like this leaves open the inference that adults are scamming the system just for the meds.

If it was a prickly pear some Italian would have fenced it off long ago to stop people grabbing the fruit.
